SHELBY COUNTY, Alabama -- Three Libertarian Party candidates will appear on Shelby County ballots for the Nov. 4 general election after receiving confirmation they have met state requirements.

Shelby County Probate Judge Jim Fuhrmeister in a letter dated Monday notified the Libertarian Party of Alabama about the candidates' approval.

The Libertarian Party candidates appearing on Shelby County ballots will be Kenneth Bailey running for sheriff, Shane Carlisle for coroner and James Sullivan seeking the office of property tax commissioner.

The Libertarian Party of Alabama is reporting that Sullivan is not seeking the office.

Previously qualifying for the general election ballot for the offices were Republican candidates John Samaniego running for sheriff and incumbents Shelby County Coroner Diana Steele New and Shelby County Property Tax Commissioner Don Armstrong.

Samaniego earned the party's nomination after beating out three other candidates in the primary race to replace Sheriff Chris Curry, who is not seeking re-election. New and Armstrong had been running unopposed.

"After reviewing the Petitions filed by the Libertarian Party for minor party ballot access, I have found that the Petitions meet the requirements of Alabama law for ballot access," Fuhrmeister wrote in the letter to Leigh LaChine, chair of the Libertarian Party of Alabama.
